  1. He is correct on some points, with Ehobby, you are engaged by the staff who actually want to help you. 

    With WGC, you have to engage the staff and only the tall, bald bloke who wears glasses is helpful.

     

    I have noticed a decrease in the quality of service on the internet side too. They take a week to ship whereas Redwolf ship next working day and Ehobby take 2-3 days.

    Last order I had with WGC, it took them over a  week to contact me when there was something missing from my order, and that was only after 3 emails I sent them asking for shipping status when they missed the shipping date by two days.

     

    If it weren't for the fact that I get a 10% discount from WGC, I probably wouldn't buy from them anymore.

     

    But the OP's point about closing 7.45pm on a Saturday evening is highly ridiculous, that's like complaining that the sea is salty. 

  2. Bladerunner may I ask how much did it cost you including import, shipping, etc?

     

    OK, 1 TM HK416 plus 5 spare HK style 82rd mags plus postage came to USD 816.50, credit card showed this to equate to £520.57.

     

    VAT, Duty plus PF fee came in at £89.36 (Echigoya under declared goods value) so total landed cost price was £609.93.

     

    Now I'm guessing that when this comes to the UK, it'll retail for £550 going on past TM recoil products, 5 midcaps will cost another £110, total £670 inc delivery.

     

    So, you're not really saving megabucks, just the satisfaction of owning it a lot earlier.

  3. Don't feed the troll, please!

     

    Rant over.

     

    I picked up mine from the PF depot this morning and I'm literally cradling it as I type this  :rolleyes:

    All I can say is, it's exquisite and thank you Echigoya for posting it out so quick (1 week door to door) and packaging up so well.

  4. KWA PMAGS weight in about 750g  :fear2:

     

    Cold weather usage wise, 9c (lowest temp I got to use it at) was OK, cycling well on green gas, venting was minimal. Mags were not covered, just inside pouches.

  5. Heh, cheers - Just managed to snag the last one from LWA, so it'l actually be here for Christmas day. Nothing says festivity like a replica AR15 :P

     

    Are the ones from LWA from Asia i.e do they have the old school KSC hop?

    Those Dytac barrels are pretty okay, and suprisingly lightweight.

     

    I fitted mine yesterday, very please with the results
